I think a simple point with your left hand, mask or no mask, would be just fine.  |
Safe w/ both hands? Yes
Fair ball down 1B line w/ left hand? Answered that already, but: line drive w/ mask likely still on will signal w/ left hand; blooper w/ mask likely off will signal w/ right hand.
Dead ball w/ both hands? Yes, of course. Depends on situation as in above. Foul ball in the batter's box or foul directly to the screen I'll still have mask on. Blooper down a foul line, mask off.
My wish for clarity was that if you can avoid pointing with a mask in your hand, should you do that?
